Some pictures of additions to our FR armies

 We had some additions to our FR armies so we thought to share them with you.

Starting with the French; the new horse artillery battery took the field together with an older line battery.

Of course we have an limber and ammunition wagon added. All figures are by Eureka; only the ammunition wagons are bij Warbases.

We also completed the Dutch artillery battery received their ammunition wagon (by warbase); the artillerist figures are by Emperor Toad; the limber and riders by Eureka.

And the Dutch infantry was strengthen with the Hollandse Garde. As no one makes the flags we handpainted these ourselves. 

The original flag is underneath (from the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam). As the orange flag is not known, I used the same motivs, just changed the base colour in orange.

Hussars of Von Glasenapp- their camp and a mock battle

 At the end of August the reenactment group of the Hussars of Von Glasenapp celebrated that they were raised 25 years ago. They portray the Frei Husaren in Prussian service from around 1760.

They had a weekend of festivities with a camp with more reenactors and 2 mock battles.

We were there and took some pictures of the various groups.

Museum day at the artillery museum 't harde in the Netherlands (part 2)

 As said in an earlier post, we had a nice wargame day at the artillery museum in 't Harde Netherlands. We have published the wargame pictures already, so it is time to publish other pictures we took from the museum and some of the artillery pieces which were on display in the open because of the open day.

First the museum pictures which first will be about the 1940 period, followed by the other European theater and lastly the KNIL period. Sadly the building of the pré 1815 period is closed thanks to a renovation. We only could take pictures of the 54 mm artillery display of a 1812 Dutch battery. (we think made by using Historex miniatures).
